    4 for me are; Please Sing, Al Muheer, then Stoic and maybe Fareer.

    I have 35 e/w Please Sing at 60 (betfair), 10 e/w Al Muheer at 48.

    Please Sing has first run in handicap, since running average stone to 2 stone out of weights in Listed class miles; all against fillies. Today runs from a good draw 31?, with only 8st6. Antara beat her 3 lengths lto, when she was effectively 24lbs ‘worse-off’, so a pointer to her chance may be Antara’s run this afternoon. See across board support for her overnight… so maybe

    If you rate Fareer (I do) then Al muheer has a chance, on last years runs via Secret Society, both at Ascot, where Al Muheer has effectively a 9lb pull for a half length, albeit over 7f.

    Fareer is likely class act of the race, but I cant be with him this time with 9st7. Stoic has more appeal basis he even went to Dubai, is sparingly raced, right sort of weight, and driver.

    Do I take it that being ‘good to your mum’ is acceptable defence… perhaps the ‘Ma Barker’ family would agree..

    PhD Student, since when has AVARICE been a philosophical school of thought? I thought it was more related to the Seven Deadly Sins.
    However, I think you are confusing GREED with Harry’s desire to maintain the lifestyle that he has been accustomed to enjoying. The latter being borne out of necessity and can hardly be considered an unworthy pursuit. I imagine a percentage of his taxes goes towards maintaining those ivory towers that you sit in studying your navel.
    As for being good to his mum, judge a man on what he does for others not on what he does for you.
    K

    Conundrum, you are wading a little out of your depth; These sins fit within theology, a noble academic pursuit – we hope. Theology then fits within academia in general, and therefore governed for example by Aristotle(Philosophy’s forefather). His Nicomachean Ethics (350BC) will offer similar guidance to these ‘philosophical views’, particularly read his work on ‘golden means’…

    I am a little concerned on your grudge against those that pursue academic enlightenment and the burden (say you) to taxpayers like Harry. You need to know that all scientific advancement occurs here, including all modern technology as you make use of.. or perhaps be used to save your life someday. Dont worry though, your conceit will not be held against you if you ever need such life support. Then I imagine you would be grateful for such taxpayer money…or perhaps its just you could not cut the mustard for uni?

    Go well, lets stick to racing in this forum

    BOTTOM LINE HE WAS ‘NAUGHTY’.

    NO ONE IS ABOVE RACING, AT LEAST THATS THE UTOPIAN VIEW.

    DO THE CRIME, NOW DO THE TIME; SIMPLE.

    Ph Student, is this the kind of intellectual gobbledygook that I pay my taxes for people like you to sit on your backsides in so-called Universities to study utter nonsense?
    Please explain the third sentence; which Utopian came out with this statement? Name names, please. In fact, I’ve never heard of Utopian horse racing and I didn’t have to go to University to know that. Surely you should be taking a more philosophical view of Harry’s misdemeanor. The guy’s good to his mum and that’s the only yardstick the BHA should be concerned about. I bet she’s feeling very upset about her young ‘arry in all this bother.

    MAWATHEEQ

    WAS HEAVILY SUPPORTED FOR THE DUBAI RACE, AND WITHDRAWN. IT WOULD APPEAR CONFIDENCE WAS HIGH WITH HIM FOR THIS.

    PURELY ON THEIR LAST MEET HE SHOULD BE RIGHT THERE, ANTEPOST OF 9.8 LOOKS GOOD VALUE. CANT HAVE BYWORD JUST ON ONE CONTEMPORARY RUN; ALBEIT A GOOD ONE.

    THINK TWICE OVER AND MAWATHEEQ FIGHT IT OUT, TALLY-HO DICKIE

    I AM AS HAPPY AS LARRY AT THE MOMENT FOR LADDIES POKER TWO. WAS LOOKING THROUGH THE EARLY DECS AND REMEMBERED THIS FROM LAST YEAR (WITHDRAWN,THEN SOLD)…30/1 THANKS VERY MUCH

    WHO BOUGHT IT; COOLMORE, AND STILL WITH NOSEDA… 30 ODD TO ONE THANK YOU.

    COOLMORE BOUGHT THIS BECAUSE THEY NEED ANOTHER BROODMARE? DOUBT IT. NOSEDA KEPT IT BECAUSE IT WS A LOST CAUSE? DOUBT IT. NOMINATED FOR THE JULY CUP, INTO THIS WITHOUT A PREP RACE, APPARENTLY WORKING WELL WITH A HIGHLY REGARDED WORKMATE (AT A PURE GUESS FLEETING SPIRIT?)

    25 20 NOW 14 AND 12, THEY MIGHT JUST BE WARMING UP…

    THM… COULDN’T AGREE MORE WITH YOUR VIEW ON MISHEER, WHO I TOOK FROM THE GUINEAS AS A POTENTIAL GR1 SPRINT PROBABILITY. INTERESTING CLIVE HAS HER NOMINATED FOR THE DARLEY TOO, AND AVOIDED THE MILE AND MILE + FILLIES RACES, BARRING THE CORONATION.

    THAT BASIS I TOOK SOME OF THE 100+ IN THE JUBILEE.

    MY READ IS THAT SHE ON FORM IS WITHIN 2 LENGTHS OF SHOWCASING. MY HOPE IS THAT SHE WILL HAVE IMPROVED, OR IMO CALLAN (I PRESUME) WILL TAKE ADVANTAGE OF BUICK’S (ONLY TEMPORARY) LACK OF EXPERIENCE TO COMMIT A RUNNER EARLY, WHICH COST SHOWCASING SURE VICTORY LAST TIME OUT, AND AS WAS ADVERTISED AT KEMPTON THE OTHER NIGHT ON THE 2 SECONDS HE RODE. I HOLD BUICK IN THE HIGHEST REGARD, AND EXPECT HIM TO BE AMONGST THE BEST HERE. PRESENTLY HE IS JUST BRILLIANT SITTING OFF THE PACE ON MILE AND MORE RACES, AS MY BANK ACCOUNT WILL TESTIFY TO; NOTABLY BEACHFIRE, DEBUSSY AND FALLEN IDOL AS EXAMPLE.

    THE PROBLEM WITH THIS IS HOWEVER, WHEN NOMS FIRST CAME OUT FOR THIS I WAS PROMPTED TO ADVISE FRED CRABBIA (ROCKETMAN) THAT THIS RACE WOULD BE A PENALTY KICK FOR HIM, PRIOR THE DUBAI RACE. WHILST HE IS NOT COMING, KINSALE KING IS, AND O’CALLAGHAN IS AT THE LEAST RATHER OPTIMISTIC, IF I HAD ONLY A COUPLE OF 2 YEAR OLDS TO BEAT SO WOULD I BE. PS THEY BET KINSALE KING SOLIDLY FROM 10 INTO 6 AND LESS FOR THE DUBAI RACE, AND THAT AGAINST ROCKETMANS EARLY PRICE OF 4/1 INTO EVENS; TAKES SOME DOING.

    WE WILL KNOW SOON ENOUGH
